John Stewart and guest DJS join Kid Jensen to review the week's new records.

California-born JOHN STEWART remains something of an enigma in the rock world: despite a long and impressive musical pedigree, lasting commercial success has eluded him. His first band, formed in the 50s, was called John Stewart and the Furies. During that phase two of his compositions were recorded by the hugely successful Kingston Trio, which he was invited to join in 1961 after a spell in a band called The Cumberland Three, whose format was not unlike that of The Trio. He remained with them until the group disbanded in 1967. Since that time Stewart has followed a solo career, recording some ten albums. His most recent one Bombs Away, Dream Babies contains the recently-released single ' Midnight Wind '.

At the end of last year he completed a European tour with seven successful shows in London. pulling in 20,000 people in one week. At the last show, at Ilford, enthusiastic fans broke the floor with their dancing.

After having spent 12 years as a painter and illustrator and after a brief spell of teaching at Canterbury Art School. Ian Dury started up seven years ago with a band called Kilburn and the Highroads. It wasn't until autumn 1977 that his present band, The Block-heads, came into being.

Ultra blonde, ultra bombshell DEBBIE HARRY is turning her thoughts to the big screen.

With guest DJ Mike Read he joins Kid Jensen to review the week's new records.

Star artists and guest D.is join Adrian Love to review the new releases.

Adrian says: ' The idea of Roundtable is a good one, which seems to work very successfully. It has just the right combination of speech, music and opinion, and I see it as a thinking review show. which goes perhaps a little deeper than say Juke Box Jury did. We have a very mixed bag of guests coming up. most of whom are in the music business, but I'd like to try and expand the range to include people not necessarily connected with the pop world, who I feel would have a lot of interesting things to say about the music anyway. Everybody on Roundtable should say what they really think, and I hope the guests will always feel that they can be totally honest. If I disagree with them. I'll say so. and of course, the Radio 1 listeners might not agree with what we say either. My personal tastes are bound to emerge when I express an opinion, but then with music, one mans fish is always another man's poisson' '
